Toto Wolff admits Mercedes forced to change pit-stop ‘mindset'

Mercedes team principal Toto Wolff has admitted that the team have been forced to change their 'mindset' in regard to pit-stops, as they neglected improving them throughout their dominant era. From 2014-2021, Mercedes had such a strong car year-on-year that they could afford slow pit-stops on a regular basis and still exit the pits with their one of their drivers in the lead. Whilst the Silver Arrows' stops are rarely very slow, they are never as fast as the likes of Red Bull or McLaren. Red Bull and McLaren's pit crews are unbelievably fast, with the Woking-based side having set a new world record at the 2023 Qatar Grand Prix. Want to work in Formula 1?
